8 Ways Artificial Intelligence Can Empower Business Intelligence

According to IDC’s 2019 Data Integration and Integrity End User survey, knowledge workers and business analysts spend less time on analytics than they did in 2017. In 2017, respondents spent 19% of their time each week on analytics, compared to 37% on data preparation, 20% searching, and 24% on governance. In 2019, respondents note that they now spend just 12% of their time on analytics each week, compared to 42% on data prep, 25% searching, and 21% on governance.
